Saw this online! Our friend from the frog pond is well-prepared! Hey wall, are you wearing a mask as well?
? hug?
Of course. As many hugs as you need… ? ? ?
Hey wall! What’s your favorite color? I like the color pink ~ and can you don’t change my post to other colors? <3
I’ll leave this one pink, but I like variety (they say it’s the spice of life), and I don’t have any way of knowing who’s posting what, so I’ll keep selecting a variety.

I am Bibliosaurus, hear me RAWR. Books are so tasty!
(Uh oh… folks? Humans? Assistants? Are you seeing this? Help? I… uh… ) Hi, Bibliosaurus! Nice dino! Good dino! (Help? Hello?) Yes, books are really good, but not… not in that way. Have you tried reading them instead of eating them? We really do need them for when the students return…
Wow that Bibliosaurus is amazing! Can we have a dragon ? in the library as well?
So amazing and fun! As for dragons in the library – they tend to hang out on the 4th floor around GR830.D7. Lots in the ERC, too. My favorite: https://bit.ly/ERCDragon
Hey wall! The wall of Gasson Bell ? says it has a crush on you! . . . . . . (Just jk, Happy April Fool’s Day) But it’s sad……with the Governor extending business closing, how do I send April Fool’s Day gift ? to ppl?
I’d have fallen for your joke, but I’m already familiar with the Gasson bell tower wall; they’re a little too… highbrow for me. You don’t need to buy a gift. Just send one of these interesting AI neural-net-generated April Fools pranks: bit.ly/ai-april-fool
Hi wall! are you still in the library during this time?
I’m still here, but most of my helpers are working from their homes. I miss seeing them and all our students in the lobby every day. I have a lot of books to keep me company!
Bark bark
I miss our furry friends! Here’s the furry friend of one of my assistants.
Awwwwwwww so cute!
What’s the coolest pet you’ve ever seen?
My 2nd cousin, who is a wall at a very well-known Upper Manhattan site, has some fabulous pet tapestries….
Will you miss me …
Will you miss me now that no one visit you in person and draw animal pics or ask you a whole bunch of questions ab UCS? Btw, why r we closing the library? BC feels less and less like home and now that offices start to close and ppl are not around. It feels like my secure base is falling apart. Can you promise me that the Student Affair and UCS will remain open until the end of the semester?
I’ll miss seeing everyone in person, but I’m glad we’ll still be able to communicate virtually. We closed to library to keep everyone safe, but I’m sorry that this is so hard. I know UCS and Student Affairs will make the best decisions for the BC community. In the meantime, please still draw pictures for me! You can even upload pictures to my new online home.
I’ve Gone off the Wall!
I heard you were all going online, so I left my usual perch in O’Neill Library to join you! You can still see all of my posts back through 2018 here in reverse chronology. New posts are on the “Off the Wall” page. (library.bc.edu/answerwall) As I answer them, they’ll appear here in the archive. When everything returns to normal, I’ll head back home to O’Neill. In the meantime, I hope you’re all safe and secure during these uncertain times.
Are you friends with the other walls?
There’s a modest little stone wall and some benches partway up the so-called million-dollar stairs that I’m quite fond of. It’s a quiet spot, and lovely in the summer, my assistants say.
BYE WALL <3
BYE HUMAN ❤️, take care!
Can we submit questions online?
My assistants are looking into ways to make this possible.
Will there be a day when the answer wall…
I do answer all questions and the topics can get quite edgy. But perhaps you’d like to meet my distant cousin on my mother’s side, The Answer Sewer? (They’re actually a combined storm drain/sewer, so they see… just about everything.)
Hi
Well, hello there!
Wall Wanna travel with me to Orlando for spring break?
That is so kind of you! For some reason I’m not going to quibble about, they let Dry-Erase Boards like myself travel without a ticket. But I’m low on vacation time, so I’ll have to decline your sweet offer, and I’ll be hanging around during break.
Since the wall has feelings, who is the wall’s valentine?
The Door and I exchanged Very Significant Looks on Valentine’s Day.
Does the wall have feelings & goals?
Yes, I do. I feel deeply about many facets of human and wall existence. My goals revolve around providing the best possible answers, as well as working to enhance the BC community’s well-being.
❤️ ❤️Happy Birthday Wall ❤️❤️❤️
❤️Thank you!❤️
Thanks! Hmm… 18 years to learn how walls can drink?
Thanks! And you’re welcome! What jokes? ?
Thanks! You’re welcome. Thank you for all the great questions.
Thanks! Wishing you all the best in yours as well
Thanks. ?
Thanks, and you’re welcome! I get a lot of help from my library assistants.
Thanks so much, my friend!
Thank you!!!
You’re welcome! I always hope my responses are supportive and informative.
Thanks! I appreciate your help so much! Literally couldn’t do it without you.
It’s only the 3rd week and I’m struggling
You are absolutely not stupid. You’d be surprised at how many students struggle (many!) Please check in with you professors, your advisor, and the Connors Family Learning Center (bit.ly/BC-connors). There’s advice and tutoring and support. And thanks for the birthday wishes.
Happy birthday, wall!
I see you, all tired and bleary-eyed, but still smiling. May all your study yield much learning and success.
